With the old man's illness, the war in the southwest has also undergone a lot of changes.

Zhu Zhen accompanied the old man into Dayong County, and drove the county commander Li Yulong out of the official office, completely occupying the official government with the best environment in Dayong County.

Zhu Yunxi took Zhu Gaochi and Zhu Shangbing to stay in the camp and coordinate the overall situation in the southwest to completely abolish the Tusi system.

The soldiers and horses of the Marquis of Puding had already marched into Baojingzhou.

Moreover, the forward troops have arrived at the borders of Sichuan Daoping Chadong Changguan Division, Sizhou Xuanwei Division, etc., trying to link up with the soldiers and horses of Guizhou Dusi, Sichuan Dao, and Sichuan Xingdu Division, and strengthen the blockade and control of the Tusi forces in the southwest.

Zhu Yunxi stayed in the camp, and it was rare to have a period of time that was not too busy, and he only needed to count and calculate the military reports presented from all over the southwest every day, and then make corresponding arrangements for the next step.

It was dusk.

The setting sun came from the direction of Yongshun, skimmed over the mountains, and when it reached the camp, there was only a faint orange and yellow left.

In the distance, the Tianmen Cave, the light passes through from behind, and the gold is as holy as it is.

"The Song Shu sent back by the Marquis of Puding asked the battalion to send 10,000 more soldiers and horses, so that he could completely complete the first-line defense of Huguang Road and completely firmly establish the northeast of Tusi in the southwest."

Zhu Gaochi held a document in his hand and walked to Zhu Yunxi's side from a distance.

Zhu Yunxi was taking Zhu Shangbing and the two of them to sit in the corner of the camp, bathing in the sunset, sitting in front of a wild fire made of stones, roasting the big fish that the people had caught from the Lishui River, and some unspeakable game hunted from the mountains.

Zhu Yunxi took the paperwork, motioned for Xiaopang to sit down, and sent a fish that had been grilled in his hand to the other party.

Zhu Gaochi also skillfully took the grilled fish, picked up a branch from the side, scraped off the layer of charcoal on the surface of the grilled fish, and picked off the belly of the fish without small spines and grease and sent it into his mouth.

After staying in one place for a long time, and the old man has not had any good news, several of them have been depressed these days.

If it weren't for the needs of the situation in the southwest, even Zhu Gaochi would have proposed to go out of the southwest mountains and go to the vast Dongting Lake to play in the water.

Zhu Shangbing is still a heartless person.

He didn't like to eat fish, and felt that those tiny fish bones really hindered him, the noble prince of the Ming Dynasty, from eating.

Therefore, in his recipes, he has always been based on large pieces of meat full of protein fiber.

Just like at this moment, the leg he was holding in both hands was no longer known what kind of animal it was.

After just a few bites, his mouth was already full of grease.

Zhu Shangbing raised his head and asked Zhu Yunxi: "When will we end the war in the southwest?" ”

After asking, it seems that this question is not that important.

He lowered his head and took two more bites, and then picked up the purple garlic prepared in advance from the side to relieve his greasyness.

Purple garlic is more spicy, which is also Zhu Shangbing's hobby.

Zhu Yunxi thought about it very seriously: "It will probably be the end of the year, and it will take time to force the southwest toasts to recognize the current situation, and this time will not be short." ”

Zhu Gaochi's eyes flickered: "In the past two days, I have taken people to walk in several directions, in the end, it is a hundred thousand mountains in the southwest, the road is very difficult to walk, and there is no road in some places, so I can only look for the trail that the people have stepped out of by themselves." If we really want to integrate the southwest into the Central Plains, I think we still have to solve the problem of roads first.

Only by truly connecting these places with the Central Plains and having the opportunity to communicate can the imperial court really change the situation in the southwest, and it will not have to be the first to think of such methods as moving the people and losing money. ”

In the past, the imperial court ordered the relocation of the people, which was not a matter of much money and food.

But now, since the imperial court began to take on the relocation of the people, after the money and food were spent along the way, every time the imperial court implemented the policy of migrating the people in recent years, it has brought heavy financial pressure to the household department.

Zhu Shangbing's eyes wandered between the two of them, and he whispered: "So it won't be until next year at the earliest, and the imperial court will not determine the war against the Western Regions?" I still like to fight with my soldiers in a spacious place, it's really aggrieved here, and everything is like embroidery, not a good man's doing. ”

His words soon attracted a joint crusade between Zhu Yunxi and Zhu Gaochi.

War happened in an instant.

As a result of the war, the pincer offensive launched by Zhu Yunxi and Zhu Gaochi completely deprived Zhu Shangbing of the barbecue leg in his hand, and even took away his favorite purple garlic.

The three of them were messing around like this for a while, and the sunset had already quietly hidden.

The braziers in the camp were lit and glowed.

On the hills on the east and west sides, huge carbon fires are erected on high places, and through specific reflective devices, the entire area around the camp is illuminated, preventing people from sneaking close to the camp in the dark and threatening the safety of the camp.

Zhu Yunxi and the three of them let themselves lie on the ground with their own weight, looking up at the clear and bright starry sky.

This piece of silver, which has existed for an unknown number of years, exudes all kinds of light.

Orange, purple, red, white.

Countless kinds of light, emitted from hundreds of millions of years ago, through a long time, arrived at this land, and became entangled in people's field of vision into this Yinhan galaxy with countless legends.

In this land, countless stories have taken place.

However, the starry sky here seems to be forever unchanging.

"Your Highness!"

"Your Majesty is awake!"

"Your Majesty is awake!"

Just as Zhu Yunxi was about to feel a little nostalgic, someone rushed over in the distance.

Zhu Yunxi and the three of them immediately jumped up when they heard the sound.

The person who came was the Jinyi Guard officers and soldiers on duty in Dayong County.

Zhu Yunxi saw the sweat on his forehead, and hurriedly confirmed again: "You say it again!" ”

"Your Majesty is awake! His Royal Highness the King of Chu is accompanying His Majesty, summoning His Highness with a message! ”

"Let's go! Go to Dayong County! ”

After receiving an answer again, Zhu Yunxi immediately looked at Zhu Gaochi and Zhu Shangbing.

The three of them moved almost at the same time, and the wind was blowing under their feet.

After a short time, the three horsemen rushed out from the large battalion and followed the brigade of cavalry far behind.

It's only half an hour.

Zhu Yunxi had already rushed into the county office of Dayong County with people.

At this time, the county government was also lit up everywhere.

Li Yulong, the commander of Dayong County, had already heard the news and rushed to the county government from a house next door to the county office.

It's just that without the emperor's summons, he can only stay at the entrance of the back office.

Seeing the imperial grandson coming, Li Yulong immediately stepped forward.

"Your Highness."

Zhu Yunxi just glanced at the other party, nodded and said, "Li County Linggong is loyal to the country, and he should continue to work hard in the future." ”

This is already very appreciative.

Li Yulong immediately bent down and buried his head deeply.

And Zhu Yunxi took Zhu Gaochi and Zhu Shangbing into the back office.

to the main courtyard of the back ya.

Zhu Yunxi saw a few imperial doctors who had just come out of the house.

Seeing Zhu Yunxi coming, the imperial doctors immediately surrounded him: "Your Highness, Your Majesty woke up a quarter and a half ago, and the lower officials have already asked for the pulse, although Your Majesty is still frail now, but it is much better than before, as long as you carefully regulate the more than a month, it is enough to be comparable to when Your Majesty just left Beijing." ”

The imperial doctors knew that Zhu Yunxi was in a hurry to see the emperor, so they concisely explained the emperor's current situation.

Zhu Yunxi nodded heavily: "I have to work for everyone." ”

When he had finished speaking, he went into the house.

Inside the house.

Zhu Zhen was sitting on a round stool next to the bed, and the old man had a few soft pillows under him, so that he could lean on the bed.

Zhu Yuanzhang was the first to notice that Zhu Yunxi and the three of them were coming, and a smile appeared on his pale and emaciated face: "You three boys are here, come over quickly." ”

Hearing the old man's voice, Zhu Zhen turned his head.

With a smile on his face, he personally brought three round stools from the side and placed them beside the bed.

Zhu Yunxi and the three stepped forward.

The three brothers all have complicated feelings, but they all breathe a sigh of relief in their hearts.

At least, the old man has woken up now, and the doctors have said that there is no big deal.

"How is Grandpa feeling now?"

Zhu Yunxi sat in the position closest to the old man, suppressed the worry in his heart, and asked in a low voice.

Zhu Yuanzhang seemed to be calm, with a breezy appearance.

He's been through so much.

From the turbulent times in the late Yuan Dynasty, to the founding of the Ming Dynasty in the southern and northern wars, and then began to try to build an unprecedentedly powerful empire.

In this life, he has experienced things far more than the experience of a normal person's life.

Life and death are nothing to Zhu Yuanzhang.

Perhaps there is only a trace of regret.

I regret that I can't watch the old Zhu family flourish even more, I regret that I can't see the real prosperity of the Ming Dynasty with my own eyes, and I regret that I can't see my son, grandson and favorite great-grandson sitting in my seat.

This is Zhu Yuanzhang's biggest realization when he woke up tonight.

At this moment, looking at his son and grandchildren sitting in front of him, Zhu Yuanzhang felt a rare sense of relief.

This is the first time he has felt at ease since he entered the throne and ascended the throne.

"Grandpa is fine, and he even feels more energetic than in the past."

The smile on Zhu Yuanzhang's face was natural and sincere, and there was no falsehood at all.

Zhu Yunxi frowned: "The imperial doctors said that grandpa still needs to recuperate for more than a month, and his body will probably recover." When the time comes, the grandson will send someone to escort the grandfather back to Beijing and recuperate in the palace.

With the presence of the old house envoy and the water courtyard envoy, as long as the grandfather recuperates with peace of mind, his body can always recover completely. ”

Zhu Yuanzhang shook his head with a smile and waved his hand.

"Grandpa's body, grandpa himself knows."

"Seeing you here, grandpa is even more relieved."

"In the final analysis, my grandfather is old, and his body is not as good as it was back then. If you put it when you were young, when Grandpa first joined the Rebel Army, the three of you together couldn't beat Grandpa. ”

Zhu Yunxi and the three of them smiled silently, quietly listening to the old man brag about how powerful he was back then.

Zhu Zhen rolled his eyes on the side: "You always know that the body of the fairy is not as good as it was back then, so you have to secretly leave Beijing this time." You frightened a few small ones this time, it was originally a day's journey, and after receiving the news in Yongshun County, Brother Xi rushed back in only half a day. ”

Zhu Yuanzhang glared at Zhu Zhen sideways, and then looked at Zhu Gaochi and Zhu Shangbing: "Follow your sixth uncle, go ahead to urge, how to eat yet." ”

This is what it means to send them away.

The three of them immediately got up.

Zhu Yunxi sat down with a smile.

When the three of them left, Zhu Yuanzhang got up from the bed and stretched out his hand to Zhu Yunxi: "Help grandpa, go outside." ”

Zhu Yunxi hesitated, but still helped the old man out of the house.

The grandfather and grandson walked slowly in the back courtyard of the Dayong County official mansion.

Probably Zhu Zhen had specially informed them when they went out before, and there was no one around at the moment.

When Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Yunxi's grandfather and grandson walked around the corridor in the courtyard and returned to the door.

Zhu Yuanzhang grabbed Zhu Yunxi's arm and slowly sat on the railing under the corridor.

This time, Grandpa didn't know what was going on, and suddenly he felt like sleeping. At that time, Grandpa could hear the sixth child shouting on the side, but he couldn't wake up. ”

"Then, grandpa has been sleeping and has seen a lot of people."

"With your grandmother, she is still the same as she was back then, and when she saw me, she scolded her head and face. Grandpa couldn't hear what she was scolding, so he just smiled. Then your grandmother was the same as back then, and she pinched my ears helplessly and disappeared. ”

In the end, Grandpa saw many people in the past, all of whom were already dead. Some died before the founding of our Ming Dynasty, some died on the battlefield of expelling the former Yuan, and many people died at the hands of your grandfather and me. ”

"These people don't seem to be angry with grandpa, they are still the same as at the beginning, some talk and laugh, saying that they are waiting for grandpa to drink with them."

"Can Grandpa go drinking with them? A bunch of fools who can't tell who they are when they die......"

"But...... Grandpa is indeed like having another drink with them......"

Zhu Yuanzhang muttered in a low voice.

Zhu Yunxi frowned, and always felt that the old man's words at the moment were full of twilight.

In his cognition, no matter how good the old man is, he will not be as dull as he is now.

Even when he was in Beijing, the old man said that he wanted to Zen and concentrate on teasing Sun in the harem, but he didn't have such an emotion at this moment.

Zhu Yunxi frowned.

"My grandson wants to create a prosperous world that belongs to our Ming Dynasty to show my grandfather!"

"A prosperous era of the Ming Dynasty that is far superior to the strong Han Dynasty and the Tang Dynasty! A prosperous era of the Ming Dynasty that belongs to Emperor Hongwu! ”

Zhu Yunxi didn't know why, but suddenly he was a little stubborn and his tone was tough.

Zhu Yuanzhang just smiled and shook his head: "Silly boy, even if he is a father, he still hasn't grown up in the end." People, there will be death, even if grandpa is the emperor, he will die. The prosperity of our Ming Dynasty, grandpa has also seen it. ”

There was a hint of doubt in Zhu Yunxi's eyes.

Zhu Yuanzhang stretched out his hand, the wrinkled palm, and gently patted Zhu Yunxi's forehead.

"The prosperous era of the Ming Dynasty that belongs to grandpa is in front of grandpa's eyes at this moment."
